At the suggestion of the owners at Casa Sucre I tried Rene Cafe for a really fun lunch. It is a small restaurant with an exposed kitchen to the right of the entrance. You have a fixed price lunch for around $8.50 which included nice green salad, Spanish tortilla or omlette, a choice of fish,chicken or pork with a large bowl of rice, plus great crepe for dessert. I thought the service was excellent and loved the atmosphere and the food. It is on Calle Oedri J. Sossa across from the Catedral in Casco Viego

We had a family lunch on a Saturday there. The menu is simple: they offer meat, chicken, fish or vegetarian main dish. It comes with 2 "entradas" in our case a quite good tortilla and a salad.The fish was salty, not very big. The vegetable rice pretty tasteless. Our kid's chicken was dry, not seasoned, not edible.The "dessert" was a dry browny. But at least it was not overpriced.A look to the open kitchen reveals a lack of hygiene, dirty windows, glasses and dishes, shelves that have not seen cleaning in ages. We wonder how this place is can display a Trip Advisor excellence reward With a 4.5 rating in 2012...?! Won't come back!

“Fun place to eat!”

Reviewed April 1, 2013

Six course meal and then some. We ate too much but it was a blast. Had a bottle of wine and the owner is right there working hard like all the employees are.

“Good value, okay food”

Reviewed March 30, 2013

I'm not sure why this restaurant gets such great reviews. I'm guessing because the food is cheap and the place has a quaint atmosphere. But, there are so many good restaurants in the area, I wouldn't go out of my way to eat here. If you want cheap food, walk along Avienda Central and eat from one of the store front local restaurants.

Adorable restaurant right off Plaza Cathedral that has a set menu of seven courses that were so filling as amazing for $22 a person! It was wonderful! Amazing food and fabulous service, just make a reservation. You can email them easily off their website and they respond quickly. Don't miss it!
